Alabama Governor Kay Ivey signed into law on Wednesday a ban on diversity, equity and inclusion programs in public schools, making the state one of a few to enact broad measures against what she and other Republicans call a leftward tilt in U.S. education.
The bill, which passed Alabama’s Republican-led legislature on Tuesday, bans public schools from maintaining diversity, equity and inclusion offices or teaching what the bill calls “divisive concepts” about race and identity, such as that of holding people of one race responsible for actions committed by the same racial group in the past.
It also requires public institutions of higher education to designate bathrooms as only for males or females, a move that counters transgender rights advocates’ push for gender-neutral bathrooms.
Except for the fact that Jewish people sometimes are antisemitic . This does not mean all Jewish people are antisemitic nor does it suggest that Jewish people are the root of antisemitism as your logic would seem to suggest.
My logic suggests the exact opposite. That the root of bigotry is bigots, not the people they are bigoted against.
And I’m saying that gay people as well as Jewish people can also be bigoted towards each other, but I’m not suggesting that they are the root of why the bigotry existed in the first place.
